Hello. I’m glad you’re here.
Over the past ten years, I’ve worked with close to 1,000 couples, and as I enter a new season of life, I want to share what I’ve learned.
To become a couple is a brave act. It is also a deeply spiritual one...not in a religious sense but meaning that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. Something new
Hello. I’m glad you’re here.
Over the past ten years, I’ve worked with close to 1,000 couples, and as I enter a new season of life, I want to share what I’ve learned.
To become a couple is a brave act. It is also a deeply spiritual one...not in a religious sense but meaning that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. Something new emerges—new life or more distance—from the synergy between the two partners.
When two people try to build a life together, it's not only about common ground. They are learning how to hold two distinct worlds in one shared space. Masculine and feminine, giving and receiving, strength and vulnerability, two circles trying to meet without losing themselves.

A couple is never just two. It is you, your partner, and the relationship you create together. That makes three!
Think of a Venn diagram (or the two interlocking hearts in the sand in the image above): each of you is a circle, and the space where those circles overlap is your connection. Or think of a butterfly. One partner is the left set
A couple is never just two. It is you, your partner, and the relationship you create together. That makes three!
Think of a Venn diagram (or the two interlocking hearts in the sand in the image above): each of you is a circle, and the space where those circles overlap is your connection. Or think of a butterfly. One partner is the left set of wings and one the right. The body of the butterfly between the two sets of wings is the relationship itself.
We usually think of either ourselves or our partners but not of the relationship which includes both. Yet that shared space is seriously important. It can be overwhelmed with emotions and words or abandoned through silence and shutdown. We can truly be "too much" or "not enough" in that overlapping shared space between us.

Partners who want more from their relationship often seek out couples counselling. They want to feel like a priority, important, heard, seen, understood, appreciated, acknowledged. The list goes on...
Complaints and criticism lead the way in the first sessions as these partners describe what they are missing and the suffering they feel. It's like being hungry with very little or even nothing to eat. It's painful to want but not have, to feel emotionally starving.
The real question is how can we get what we want in a lasting way? We don't know how and we want someone to tell us or, better yet, show us!
HOW CAN YOU GET WHAT YOU WANT IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP?
